Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connection between two coaxially arranged annular sections of two components of a thermally highly loaded device, in particular an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, which is arranged in particular in a motor vehicle, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a with at least one such Connection equipped exhaust system.
  • a heat-insulated passage of a pipe through a wall opening is known, wherein a sleeve passing through the wall opening is screwed to an opening edge and forms a first component, while the tube coaxially passes through the sleeve and thereby forms a second component.
  • Both components each have an annular section so far.
  • an annular connecting body is arranged in the known wall bushing, which has two concentrically arranged ring sections. The two ring sections are fixedly connected to one another axially on the end face via a connecting region.
  • the first ring portion is fixedly connected to the annular portion of the first component, ie the sleeve, via a first connection region remote from the connection region, while the second annular portion is firmly connected to the annular portion of the second component, ie the tube, via a second connection region remote from the connection region is.
  • WO 79/00656 A1 From the WO 79/00656 A1 is a multi-shell pipe bend is known in which an inner tube is connected at its free end with an intermediate tube which extends coaxially with the inner tube to form an annular gap. At the free end of the intermediate tube, which is remote from the free end of the inner tube, an outer tube is fixed, which extends to form a second annular gap coaxial with the inner tube and the intermediate tube.
  • the present invention is concerned with the problem of providing for a compound of the type mentioned or for an exhaust system equipped therewith an improved embodiment, which is characterized in particular by the fact that it has a relatively high fatigue strength.
  • the invention is based on the general idea to realize the connection between the two coaxial annular sections of the two components by means of an annular connecting body having at least two concentric ring sections. In exactly two ring sections these are axially connected to each other end face via a connecting portion and axially spaced thereof are each firmly connected to one of the annular portions of the components.
  • This connection technology allows within the connection radial movements between the respective annular connection portions of the two components relative to each other, wherein the two ring sections and / or the connection region yield elastically and thereby how a radial spring act.
  • the connecting body provides in the axial direction a comparatively rigid or rigid connection between the connecting sections of the components, whereby the required axial forces can be transmitted. Due to the spring elasticity in the radial direction thermally induced stresses in the connecting body can be elastically absorbed. The durability of the compound is relatively large.
  • the joint body has at least a portion or region whose temperature expansion coefficient is between the coefficient of thermal expansion of a ferrite material and an austenite material.
  • This design is advantageous if, according to the invention, one of the two components is ferritic at least in the region of its annular connection section, while the other component is austenitic at least in the region of its annular connection section.
  • the connecting body and thus the entire connection is less thermally stressed in such a configuration, which is advantageous for the fatigue strength of the connection.
  • the connecting body can be formed by a sheet-metal shaped body produced from one piece.
  • a sheet-metal body is comparatively inexpensive to produce.
  • this sheet-metal shaped body can be produced from a duplex material.
  • a duplex material preferably a steel, a material is understood which has a two-phase structure, namely a ferrite phase and an austenite phase.
  • such a two-phase material consists of a ferrite matrix in which austenite islands are embedded.
  • connection body may be a built-in component in which the two ring sections form separate components which are firmly connected to one another via the connection region.
  • Such a constructed connecting body can be adapted particularly skillfully by suitable selection of materials for the individual components to the respective conditions of use, whereby particularly high values for the fatigue strength can be achieved for the connection.
  • FIG. 1 schematically shows a highly simplified, schematic sectional view of an exhaust system in the region of a compound.
  • FIG. 1 a partially illustrated first component 1 in the region of an annular first portion 2, which is also referred to as the first connection portion 2, by means of a compound 3 at an annular second portion 4, hereinafter referred to as the second connection portion 4, at one here only partially represented second component 5 are attached.
  • the annular connecting sections 2, 4 extend annularly or in the circumferential direction with respect to a longitudinal axis 6, the longitudinal axis 6 simultaneously defining an axial direction which extends parallel to the longitudinal axis 6.
  • the "ring shape” comprises at least circular, elliptical and oval cross sections.
  • the two components 1 and 5 are preferred, but without limiting the generality, each part of an otherwise not shown exhaust system 7 of an internal combustion engine, which may be located in particular in a vehicle.
  • the first component 1 may be an exhaust manifold
  • the second component 5 may be, for example, a housing of an exhaust gas turbocharger.
  • the exhaust manifold 1 and the exhaust gas turbocharger 5 are fastened to each other via the connection 3.
  • the exhaust manifold 1 is configured as an air gap-insulated exhaust manifold with inner shell and outer shell
  • the exhaust gas turbocharger 5 or its housing may be connected via the connection 3 only with the inner shell or only with the outer shell or both with the inner and with the outer shell.
  • the connection 3 comprises an annular connecting body 8, via which the two components 1, 5 are fastened to one another.
  • the connecting body 8 has a first annular section 9 and a second annular section 10.
  • the ring sections 9, 10 are sleeve-shaped or cylindrical, in particular circular-cylindrical, designed and extend coaxially to the longitudinal axis 6 and concentric with each other or into each other.
  • the first ring portion 9 is arranged radially outward, while the second ring portion 10 is arranged radially inwardly relative thereto.
  • the two ring sections 9, 10 are axially connected to one another at the end face via a connecting region 11.
  • the connecting portion 11 is fixedly connected in each case with an axial end of the respective ring portion 9, 10 frontally.
  • the first ring section 9 is fixedly connected to the first connection section 2 of the first component 1 via a first connection region 12, which is axially spaced from the connection region 11.
  • the second ring section 10 is fixedly connected to the second connection section 4 of the second component 5 via a second connection region 13, which is axially spaced from the connection region 11. Since the attachment regions 12, 13 are axially removed from the connection region 11, the connection body 8 can be like a radial spring Act.
  • the two ring sections 9, 10 thereby form spring legs, which are fixed to one another via the connecting region 11.
  • the spring effect is realized by elastic bending deformations in the region of the ring sections 9, 10 and / or in the region of the connection region 11.
  • the connecting body 8 preferably consists entirely or at least partially of a material whose coefficient of thermal expansion lies between the temperature expansion coefficient of a ferrite material and the coefficient of thermal expansion of an austenite material.
  • the coefficient of thermal expansion of the connecting body 8 is in a middle range of an interval, which is limited by the thermal expansion coefficients of ferrite and austenite.
  • the use of such a connecting body 8 is particularly advantageous if the one component 1 or 2 is ferritic, while the other Component 1 or 2 is austenitic.
  • the first component 1, that is to say in particular the exhaust manifold 1 is ferritic
  • the second component 5, that is to say in particular the turbocharger housing is austenitic.
  • the first component 1 only has to be ferritic in the region of its first connection section 2.
  • the second component 5 must in principle only be austenitic in the region of its second connection section 4.
  • the connecting body 8 is assembled from a plurality of separately manufactured components, so that in the following it is also possible to speak of a built connecting body 8.
  • the connection region 11 may be a weld seam 14.
  • This weld 14 is preferably produced with an austenite material or with a duplex material. It is particularly advantageous that the connecting region 11 is located radially on the outside, that is, on a comparatively cold side of the connection. The thermal load of this connection region 11 is therefore reduced in relation to an internal arrangement.
  • the annular section fastened to the first component 1, that is to say here the first annular section 9, preferably consists of a duplex material.
  • the first ring portion 9 may be made of a ferrite material or a nickel base alloy.
  • the nickel-based alloy is characterized by an increased corrosion resistance and by a particularly high temperature resistance.
  • the nickel-based alloy preferably has a relatively high nickel content. It has a lower than austenite and compared to ferrite increased temperature expansion coefficient. Preference is given to a nickel-based alloy with the trade name Inconel.
  • the annular section fastened to the second component 5, that is to say here the second annular section 10 preferably consists of an austenitic material.
  • the second ring portion 10 may consist of a duplex material.
  • the connecting body 8 is produced in one piece, wherein the connecting body 8 is preferably designed as a shaped sheet metal body.
  • This one-piece or integrally produced connecting body 8 can be produced for example by forming a corresponding disc-shaped blank.
  • This integral connecting body 8 may for example consist of duplex material.
  • the connecting regions 12 and 13 may each be formed by a weld 15 and 16, respectively.
  • the weld 15 of the first connection region 12 is preferably produced with the aid of a duplex material.
  • the use of a ferritic welding material is possible.
  • this first connection region 12 is located radially outward and is thus exposed to a reduced thermal load.
  • the weld 16 of the second attachment region 13 is preferably made by means of an austenite material. It is located radially inside and therefore requires increased thermal resistance.
  • the use of a duplex material is also possible here in principle.
  • the first ring section 9 is preferably also made of ferrite material or of duplex material or of a nickel-based alloy, while in the case of a second component 5 made of austenitic material, the second ring section 10 also consists of austenitic material or of duplex material.
  • the weld 12 is then conveniently formed with duplex material while the weld 15 is ferrite or duplex and the weld 16 is austenite or duplex.
  • an annular gap 17 is formed radially between the two ring sections 9, 10.
  • This annular gap 17 realizes a thermal gap insulation between the two ring sections 9, 10, whereby the heat transfer between the two components 1, 5 is reduced.
  • an annular gap 18 can be formed radially between the second ring section 10 and the second connection section 4.
  • This annular gap 18 also realizes a thermal gap insulation, which reduces the heat transfer between the two components 1, 5.
  • an annular gap can also be formed radially between the first ring section 9 and the first connection section 2, which, however, is not provided in the example shown.
  • the second ring section 10 is stepped, so that it has at least two axial sections.
  • the in Fig. 1 Lower axial section shown below is over an offset region 19 with the in Fig. 1 connected upper axial section shown above.
  • the inner diameter of the lower axial section is greater than the inner diameter of the upper axial section, whereby the annular gap 17 can be realized.
  • the outer diameter of the lower axial portion is larger than the outer diameter of the upper axial portion, whereby the annular gap 18 is realized.
  • the second ring portion 10 extends in profile straight.
  • the gap width of the respective gap 17, 18 measured in the radial direction is smaller than a wall thickness of the first ring section 9 or the second ring section 10 measured in the radial direction. Both ring sections 9, 10 have approximately equal wall thicknesses. In the example, the two ring sections 9, 10 have approximately the same axial lengths.
  • the respective annular gap 17, 18 preferably extends axially over 50% of the respective annular section 9, 10.
  • the contact zones 20, 21, 22 preferably each extend approximately over 50% of the respective annular section 9, 10.
  • the compound 3 presented here considerably reduces the heat transfer between the two components 1, 5 since the heat for this purpose is conducted via the connecting body 8, which is made more difficult, in particular, by the annular gaps 17, 18.
